Club Members shooting trip to Wales

Hi All.

If you remember earlier in the year I asked if any of our members were interested in travelling over to a shooting grounds in Wales for a weekends shooting.  At the time I got the name of about 13 members that were interested in going, Thanks to Dennis we now have some costs and a possible shooting grounds.

  • Locationhttp://www.fauxdeglashootingground.co.uk/
  • Dates: September 2nd – 4th (leaving Friday – returning Sunday)
  • Ferry & Hotel approx €220 (Bed & breakfast in a twin room 10miles from the grounds)
  • 200 clays for €63
  • Optional lessons @ £80stg for 2 hours incl. clays
  • 500 cartridges between £90-£100stg

Each shooter will also need to get a gun Europass EFP. This is free and obtained in your local Garda station. You need 2 x photographs and bring along your current gun licence.

We also need to get a sponsor / permit for shooting in the UK.  This is completed by the shooting grounds. It costs £100stg for 6 or more shooters. Permit: http://www.north-wales.police.uk/media/124995/61116-Application-for-a-Vistor-Permit.pdf

So based on 10 people and the above prices you are looking at €355 approx (not including dinners). So please let me know if you are still interested as we need to get this moving due to the forms needed.
